Sneak Peek: NARS Lipglosses Photos & Swatches

NARS Lipgloss ($24.00 for 0.18 fl. oz.) has been reformulated and will have thirty shades when it officially launches on April 15th. I’m working my way through testing them for wear, so you’ll see reviews throughout the next couple of weeks. You can expect full sets of photos, swatches, etc. along with in-depth reviews and dupes when those get posted. 🙂

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when
a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set
expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up
being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

You know, I picked one up the other day and I think they are great! They remind me a little of the Bite lip glosses without having the plastic smell I associate with that brand. Also, it’s in a pretty big tube, so it seems like you get a lot of product. I wouldn’t normally spend more than 10 dollars on lip gloss, but the Buxom lip glosses aren’t a bad buy. Be forewarned that all the colors have some amount of sparkles in them.

i love how you laid out all of the glosses for the pictures. did you wish there were two more so you could finish the last NARS? i would have taken me hours to do something like that! my OCD would have gotten totally out of control!

I don’t wear gloss that often these days, but the NARS glosses are so iconic, I’m very interested in seeing your full reviews! Wow Striptease looks a lot more sheer than the older version, if I remember correctly. NARS does offer such a gorgeous selection of shades

Is it just me or do a lot of these look very similar to each other? I’ll probably end up with a couple- Angelika, Turkish Delight, and Dolce Vita look really pretty and different enough from each other that I could rationalize getting yet another lipgloss! I will wait for your review, though, Christine:) Have you reviewed any Bite lip glosses? I just bought the Rose Gold lipgloss set from Sephora and was wondering if you were familiar with that formula. I love everything I’ve tried from them, so I took the plunge- buy, if deny one has son opinion on Bite lipgloss I’d love to hear it!:)

Christine, I love your blog! I’m just getting into the world of “big girl” makeup and whenever I see something I like online or in store, I always check your blog first to see if you’ve reviewed it! You’re the best!!

Some of these look like good my lips but better colours like ophelia or stolen kisses.

I’ve been having such bad luck with finding a natural lip colour. My super pigmented lips turning every pink plummy and my yesterday’s haul included a lip gloss which was a delicate pink at the store and neon pink at home (how!!) This ongoing hunt made me figure out why my mother chose only one colour every time she bought lipstick.

I am EAGERLY anticipating your review on Dolce Vita Christine!! Will you be comparing it to the old formula too? I remember you reviewed Dolce Vita as part of the Nars hearts NY pallete.

Dolce Vita is my ALL TIME FAVORITE lippie. I actually get panic attacks when I can’t figure out where I last put it. No lie. My BF witnessed me throw apart my room looking for it once. No other lip product puts me in a happy mood EVERY time I put it on. Its like a drug to me LOL. I freaked out when I read they were reformulating this so I ordered 5 from Nars online. I hope they send me the old one. Crossing my fingers. I really can’t see how my beloved Dolce Vita can be any better.

Hmm…personally, at that level of pigmentation, I require serious sparkle/shimmer from a shimmery gloss. So this is probably not a line for me. But I’m not a huge gloss lover, anyway. I do like the looks of Risky Business and Misbehave…and their names! 🙂

That…is a lot of lipglosses! You’ve got your work cut out for you there, Christine! 😀 I appreciate it a lot though – I see a few things there that catch my eye, so it will be great to hear your reviews as usual!

I’m really hoping that they took away the smell of the lipgloss and changed the applicator… Those 2 factors kept me away from purchasing these even though the consistency was not sticky and the color payoff was good!
